BOSTON, Mass. – Looking for a few final tune-ups prior to the Northeast-10 Conference Indoor Championships next weekend, the Bryant men’s and women’s indoor track teams turned in another solid showing at Saturday’s Boston University Valentine’s Day Meet at the BU Track & Tennis Center. A total of five new school records were set, two individually and three by the Bulldog relay teams.
Natasha Stevenson placed 31st in the women’s 200 meters, but her time of 25.87 set a new school record in the event and pushed her closer to an NCAA provisional qualifying mark. Stevenson set the record in the event back in December with a New England qualifying time of 26.06. Carey Fitzgerald tied Mary Sanker’s 2005 school record in the pole vault, clearing 8 feet.
Bryant’s men’s and women’s 4x400 relay teams took center stage with each setting new school records. The men’s team of Jeff Hedberg, Mike Lawlor, Joe Brennan, and Hafiz Greigre finished 20th overall in a time of 3:23.74. The women’s team (Samantha Genatossio, Amanda Early, Justine Douvadjian, and Natasha Stevenson) placed 25th in a record time of 4:06.89.
Finally, the Bryant men’s distance medley relay team shattered the school record by more than 20 seconds as the team of Steve Barone, Corey Chapman, Chris Valence, and Caleb Paul finished seventh in 10:26.80.
